Dirt: My job

It is pretty amazing being a mom.
My life is so different than I thought it would be. If I had actually given it any thought, or had someone giving me direction, I would have been a writer or gone into marketing. 
Instead, I studied anthropology, became a restaurant employee, a very mediocre auditor for a retail company, and then a mom.
I am struggling with what my next step is. My kids are at that crucial moment when they need advice and guidance and independence. The hand holding is mostly over. They can cross streets, cook food, dress themselves, and both are learning to drive cars.  
I have been a good mom. There is no doubt about that.
